The tax-free way to save
More money when you need it most
A tax-free savings account (also known as a "TFSA") is a great way to save for long term goals without paying tax on interest earned or dividends received. You will have easy access to your funds and won't pay tax when you make withdrawals.
You don't pay tax on any interest, dividends or capital gains
You can withdraw your money at any time
You can contribute up to R36 000 per year
You can have more than one Tax-free savings account
A proven track record of consistent superior returns
We keep fees as low as possible
A highly diversified portfolio
More time, more money, more tax saved
Tax savings increase over time as you earn compound growth on the tax saved.
In this example, you could end up with 30% more money simply by investing in a TFSA instead of a regular savings investment.
The example assumes you invest R3,000 per month for 13 years and 10 months with a final contribution of R2,000 in the 11th month when the lifetime contribution of R500,000 is reached. The investment earns 11% per annum and has an equal return split between income, dividends and capital gains.
The personal tax rate is 45%.
